I'm hoping that the heavies of our club can work more effectively in making good, strong, better decisions and being together aiming for positive results in the years ahead and keeping us in the top 8 for a long time. I'm a dreamer, I know, but I think that there is good change coming and better things to come OED.
Thanks redandwhite4evr. The thought of us being known as the Western Dragons and being outposted to that western state would make most here and Dragons fans in general just give up following league. Our brand with the link to St George should never ever be changed.
Im hoping too DD. I thought things would start changing when we freed ourselves from Mary, but here we are still waiting. I actually think there is a plan but it will take time. I hope that our next coach is someone from outside the club. The important thing is that players see it as a positive playing for him. So I don't think Young is our solution for now.
Honestly I think the JV's COULD have been these super clubs that were promised. And they still can. It's been up to the bone heads in the board room to make it happen, and instead they've argued, been stubborn and selfish. Once they get their shit together and realise what they actually have, then they will become what was promised. The fault is not on the league, it's on the board of the Dragons.
In the best of all possible worlds, I would love the Board of the Dragons to front a meeting of members and be quizzed about their vision for the future. I, like so many on this forum, suspect that Win Corp lacks people who are passionate about Rugby League- it's just not in their DNA. That's what I suspect as I never hear a word from the Gordons about Rugby League or see them attend matches. I could be very wrong- but I need convincing of that. I need to hear from them directly that they will not rest until the Dragons are winning premierships and Rugby League is the premier sport in the Illawarra. And if I'm not wrong, I want Win to sell their share of the Franchise to someone like Paul Smith and get out of the way.
Here, here redandwhite4evr.
Aren’t all NRL clubs getting a30 year guarantee in staying in the comp ?
St George need to find another partner at NRL level and develop a good relationship with the Illawarra Club (our feeder Club). Let Illawarra run our junior pathways leading right through to NSW Cup.
Host won't be coming back. He has re-signed to the end of 2025 with Souths
we have other juniors who are probably ahead of him... Dylan Egan and nick tsougranis
Lets hope we have contracts for these players. This is also where we need someone like Brown to keep up with all juniours to monitor progress
Supporting St George is already living in Hope Island.
Walsh has outshined Egan from the games i have seen over the last month in saying that alot of talent in the backrow in our junior teams..
Oh it just keeps getting better, at least we still have Mbye phew.
Yep, just read it. Sullivan injured at training yesterday.
